Design UX

You may have good contents on your site. But it doesn’t guarantee Adsense approval unless you’ve good design and easy navigation on your site. If you want to make money from your site, then you should consider investing some money on site design. WordPress user can go for Premium Themes.

Quality

Getting rejected by Adsense is frustrating. After a few rejections, many new bloggers get this idea in their head that they won’t get Adsense approval ever. If you are one of them, you are not alone. And you are in the right place.

Google doesn’t reveal any hints on what basis they approve a new account. All you can do is to maintain some standards before applying for Adsense. You can also consider the following tips as Google Adsense Approval Checklist.

Domain Ownership

Gone are those days when people would get Adsense account with free subdomains site like Blogspot, Weebly etc. Google still approves subdomains site, but you have to make sure that your site has good contents, nice design, easy navigation etc.

It’s really tough to make subdomain sites compatible with Adsense standards. Google has already banned some subdomains site like .co.cc, .co.nr. So I suggest you grab a top-level domain like me (RoadToBlogging.Com). .Com, .net, .org, .in, .com.bd etc are the top-level domains. Here is an example to understand the difference.

Other Ads

It’s not a bad idea to try some Adsense alternatives when you don’t have an Adsense account yet. But remove those Ads before applying for Adsense. Though Google allows you to use another Ad Networks with Adsense, it creates a bad impression to the Adsense team if your site is filled with other networks’ ads.

Site Submission

Whenever you launch a site, you always want that people can discover your site easily. Search Engines are the place where people you find your site easily. All you need to do is submit your sitemap on search engines.

And also make sure that Google has indexed your site’s pages. Type site:yourdomain.com in Google Search and check whether Google indexes your site or not. Sometimes Google takes one week or more to index your site. If you’ve some relevant backlinks, your pages will be indexed fast. Interlinking blog posts also helps Search Engine Bots to index your pages.

Google Analytics

Analytics and Webmaster tools are two awesome tools by Google. Analytics provides detailed statistics about your site. And Webmaster tools provides a detailed report on site’s pages visibility on Google.

Unique Contents

You have to create fresh and unique contents before applying for Adsense. Adsense doesn’t require huge contents, but quality contents. Some bloggers got Adsense account with only 20-30 posts, while some didn’t get approval with more than 100 posts.

Pages Creation

There are some pages that provide a better user experience. Google always focuses on better user experience. Most of the new bloggers don’t create these pages. Having these pages creates a good impression to the Adsense team. To create the following pages before applying for Adsense.

About – Most of the first time visitors visit ‘About’ page. They want to know who you are behind the blog. In about page, you can write about yourself and your blog or whatever you want.

Contact – This is the most ignored page. You will realize its important once you have it. You might have missed direct advertising because of not having a contact page.

Privacy Policy – According to Adsense TOS, you must have a privacy page that contains information about cookies, device-specific information, location information and other information stored on.
